My sister bought my mother who is in her 70's a new pig at an exotic sale a few weeks ago.My mom was really happy telling all about him.She named him Chico.I got to see him last Saturday.My mother didn't know much about them and had him in a card board box.
We were doing some work up there for her and dad that day.I called my son and had him to bring up one of my xtra cages for her.I told her he needed a cage (Bless her heart she loves animals like I do,but doesn't realize what a pig needs.
Monday I dropped a few other things like hay wood blocks and went Tuesday and bought Chico an igloo and more pellets.
She said chico loves everything I got.I am in the process of building him a better cage.
Runt, that is great that you are helping educate your mom on the needs of a pigger and helping her furnish his new home. Be sure and post pigtures k? We wanna see Chico!
Thank you.I think she will do fine with him.I told her to let me know when she runs out of supplies and I would get her more.I already have most of the stuff she needs that I keep on hand.She tries to pay me for stuff but I refuse to take money from her.
That is awesome. I wish my mom liked guinea pigs, but alas she has no use for cuddly animals in her world! So how's Chico doing? Probably pretty spoiled by now huh?
